What are the benefits from Creative Domain Names that don't have any meaning and pronounsable Creative Domain Names? Who buy them? anything else?

You mean like Google, Yahoo, Tesco etc ?

They're brandable and expandable and can be used in more or less any area.

eg: Tescos sells all sorts from food, clothes, home insurance, car insurance etc


The good ones are catchy and easy to remember but its still takes promotion to turn them into a household name.

They can be bought by anyone and be used for anything, think of all the new products that are being manufactured all the time, they all need to be called something.....like wii, xbox, zune etc

They're usually short and EASY to pronounce which is why good short domains (that currently don't mean anything) can be very valuable.


....that's some of the benefits.

Some are considered a lot more valuable than others but it takes skill to be able to pick out the gems. Most people think that they are better than they really are.

There is also a bit of luck.

One of the main benefits is that a "made up" meaningless domain isn't likely to have any trademark trouble.

Another benefit is that there are no limits on what you can do with a creative/brandable domain. If you have a domain like searchengine.com, everyone is going to assume before even going to your website that you're a search engine and it might hurt your ability to expand beyond search.
